We were there celebrating a big anniversary [wink]. Upon checking in, Danica was so sweet and offered us a nice treat for our stay. We also want to thank Enrique for picking us up at the Lake Louise Village, as well as the concierge who arranged the pick up. Enrique is such a sweet gentleman who gave us many useful information about the facility and services.
The hotel is beautifully maintained inside and out. Our room was spacious and well appointed. Flowers in the garden are gorgeous. And of course, the location is unbeatable. We got up 5:30 to experience the amazing sunrise at Lake Louise. What a treat!
Canoeing on the lake was fantastic with stunning views of Mont Victoria and the hotel. Breakfast and dinner at Louiza were great. We enjoyed especially the breakfast with many healthy choices of vegies and fruits at the cold buffet.
The only small disappointment was the common pool. Small and not warm. My wife did enjoy the heated hydro pool with the Basin Glacial Waters experience.
We really enjoyed our stay there. Lovely memories…

The property is ideal for a Lake Louise visit. The location offers easy access to the lake at all hours including transportation to Moraine Lake that you can easily sign up for. There is parking and dining on site that must be used as there are few close options. The rooms are spacious and well maintained most with views of the lake. If you can afford the high price tag, I would highly recommend staying at this property as access to outside parking is limited by the deluge of daily visitors to Lake Louise in summer.

Well, the overall it is good however I think the restroom they are OK and overpriced maybe because I’m booked in last-minute $3000 a night it’s a bit bit overpriced. I actually try a lot of luxury hotel and restaurants but I don’t think this one really worth it because the overpriced the stay and the restaurant

Staff was very helpful and professional. They have multiple activities available that are included with the stay. There is also a free shuttle to the village and gondola in Lake Louise. Had a view of the lake from my room which I highly recommend. The restaurants are excellent and recommend getting a reservation ahead of time for lunch and dinner. There are multiple trails to hike in the area and saw a black bear on the side of the road from the shuttle. Had a very pleasant and relaxing stay.

Everything about our stay at this magical hotel exceeded our expectations. The staff were warm and attentive, the food was delicious, and our immaculate room came with a lake view that honestly felt a little unfair to every other hotel. The Basin Glacial Experience was a highlight, and the surprisingly amazing Aufguss ritual completely won us over. We loved every single moment and were not quite ready to return to real life.

The only area where we have criticisms is in the food offerings. As with the other parts of the hotel, the service was consistently good to excellent. The food itself, however, was generally lacking in terms of choice/variety, flavor/seasoning and value. The various dining spaces are amazing aesthetically; it’s a shame that the food didn’t live up to these spaces. We also felt it to be a missed opportunity that no food/beverage service is offered for the outside seating areas (beyond fire services). This would seemingly generate a great deal of high margin revenue.

Every other aspect of our stay was magical. Thank you for your hospitality!

Fairmont Lake Louise is out of this world. A truly unique location and property. Not to be missed! The ability to experience Lake Lousie without a crowd is a valuable and unique opportunity (and staying at this property is really the only way to do that). My only feedback is that the only (small) pool and hot tub (for general, rather than spa guest) is indoors and does not have any view. It didn't bother us for our summer visit, but this might be a bummer for a winter trip.

It’s a beautifully sited hotel right on the lake - we hiked, had dinner there two nights and it was lovely even in the rain.
Staff are superb
My only critique is breakfast time only one restaurant open -it was mobbed so much we left- they do offer room service but that didn’t work as we were packed up to leave.
Other option for to go items - mobbed by people not staying there.
So … summary: great hikes - go early lots of hikers. lovely dinners ( we had way advance reservations)
Couldn’t get a spa treatment ( booked solid)
But you absolutely cannot beat the view
And staff are top notch

Located right on Lake Louise shore. The check in was very slow. After got into our room, I made a kettle of water and the breaker tripped, the electriciy in whole room went off. My husband went to a staff ask for help (our room is next to staff center). But even after our dinner, the issue was stil there. My husband had to ask the staff and followed him until he flipped the breaker. The maids did not refill the supplies in the room. Stayed 2 nights, only one night had night service, but did not take the garbage away. The staffs in the restaurants are friendly, although not very skillful.

Nice, modern room, comfortable bed. However, the room is quite small (as is the bathroom) considering the premium rate you pay to stay here. The full breakfast is C$45 and is very good (except for the overly spicy sausage). Everything for sale here is pricey. Beautifully situated at one end of Lake Louise, there are several way marked trails into the surrounding area.

Beautiful property with hiking trails feet from the hotel. Beautiful views of lake Louise and the Canadian Rockies. Our room had a large window so we woke up to nature’s elements and could here far off avalanches!. The bell staff and fine dining staff were fantastic and took the time to ensure everything was perfect. I was disappointed at how few gluten free menu options and beer options were available and therefore ordered fine dining dinners that were amended to remove gluten which meant losing flavors but paying a high price. Still a great stay!

There are nice quiet places to sit with good views on 1st floor near Fitness Center. Would be helpful to put the Fitness Center on the elevator buttons, otherwise a little tricky to find.
